INTRODUCTION

This user manual is specific to your Specialized Camber FSR bicycle. It contains important safety, performance and 

technical information, which you should read before your first ride and keep for reference. You should also read the entire 

Specialized Bicycle Owner’s Manual (“Owner’s Manual”), because it has additional important general information and 
instructions which you should follow. If you do not have a copy of the Owner’s Manual, you can download it at no cost at 

www.specialized.com, or obtain it from your nearest Authorized Specialized Retailer or Specialized Rider Care.
Additional safety, performance and service information for specific components such as suspension or pedals on 
your bicycle, or for accessories such as helmets or lights, may also be available. Make sure that your Authorized 

Specialized Retailer has given you all the manufacturers’ literature that was included with your bicycle or 
accessories. If there is a difference between the instructions in this manual and the information provided by the 
component manufacturer, please refer to your Authorized Specialized Retailer.
When reading this user manual, you will note various important symbols and warnings, which are explained below:

WARNING! The combination of this symbol and word indicates a potentially hazardous situation 

which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death. Many of the Warnings say “you 

may lose control and fall.” Because any fall can result in serious injury or even death, we do not 

always repeat the warning of possible injury or death.

CAUTION: The combination of the safety alert symbol and the word CAUTION indicates a potentially 

hazardous situation, which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury, or is an alert 

against unsafe practices.
The word CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol indicates a situation which, if not avoided, 

could result in serious damage to the bicycle or the voiding of your warranty.

INFO: This symbol alerts the reader to information which is particularly important.

GREASE: This symbol means that high quality grease should be applied as illustrated.

CARBON FRICTION PASTE: This symbol means that carbon friction paste should be applied as 

illustrated to increase friction.

TORQUE: This symbol highlights the correct torque value for a specific bolt. In order to achieve 

the specified torque value, a quality torque wrench must be used.

TECH TIP: Tech Tips are useful tips and tricks regarding installation and use.

INTENDED USE
